About Us
Australian Owned with Australian Interests in Mind
Tathra traditional meaning is a "beautiful country". As one of the best governed countries in the world, Australia has one of the highest living standards measured in per capita terms in the world. With it's vast resources, and proximity to the fastest growing economic regions in the world, it is widely held as the "Lucky Country". Tapping into this Pan Asia Pacific Region requires high standard port and transport infrastructures, environmental protection businesses and strong international funding sources. This Private Fund was envisioned to be Australian owned and Australian influenced in its project funding allocations.
Empowering Australians, New Zealand & Pacific Islanders
Development capital allocated along international standards and via apolitical non aligned interests gives the region a chance to retain its own sovereignty and reduce the reliance on foreign owned capital to stimulate local jobs and bring high standard of living to different regions, while protecting the local environment to communities at the local level.
The fund also looks at Asian investments that will be strategic in nature and complement the industries of Australia, New Zealand & the Pacific Islands. These may include environmental projects targeting renewable energy sources and CO2 targeting. Our world is all interlinked, and the environmental technology and infrastructure of neighbouring countries will have a CO2 impact on the smaller Pacific Nations.

From food programs to social housing for the needy, we look to care for the less fortunate and create a minimum standard of living for those at the lower rung of society.

Impact Investments
We support innovative businesses that make an impact in the community and the environment.
Private Equity
Tathra is interested in taking interests in businesses from across the industry spectrum, but with a special interest in technology, healthcare, and environmental themes.
Private Loans and Private Debt
In the age of rigid lending policies for systematically important banks, we support businesses and private lenders that support small to medium businesses, which are the backbone of the economy and an important sector that attends to the market needs of community.
Private Public Partnerships
Improving Lives & the Environment
We believe in high community impact Private Public Partnership investments. With so many unfulfilled community needs and funding shortage, many developing nations use Private Public Partnership funding methods to attain much needed social infrastructure. This funding model is rarely used in developed nations such as Australia and New Zealand, as governments fulfil many of the needs of the community via public allocated budgets.
With a team of Australian expatriates in the fund with overseas experience, Private Public Partnership funding methods is now possible in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands.
Infrastructure projects of interest include energy related investments, such as solar power, electric vehicle charging stations, to private hospitals and medical centres to social housing and data centres. The team also has access to high speed railway technology has interests in environmental businesses that recycle waste and water treatment and supply technologies. Regionally we also invest into Asia, on projects that facilitate Australian and New Zealand economies.
Our model of development funding is to partner the leading companies or organisations that have the expertise and track record to create a quality impact in their regional location.
We also look to rank local community priorities and needs before undertaking investment to avoid white elephants and inappropriate development that also has an impact on the natural environment. Our focus is for a harmonic balance of people communities and the natural environment.
ESG Centric
With the increasing realisation that modern development has with environmental destruction, ESG considerations are also part of the DNA of the fund. We aim to seek facilitate harmonic improvements to communities and it's natural environment.
